Introduction
//Swaziland is a country located in Southern Africa, between Mozambique and South Africa. Its coordinates are// //(26 30 S, 31 30 E.) This country got independence granted in 1968. Also Swaziland recently surpassed// //Botswana as the country with the worlds highest known HIV/AIDS prevalence rate.// //Its area is a total of 17,364 sq km. 17,204 sq km - land, 160 sq km- water. Their language is Swati.//

The //**population**// of Swaziland is a total of 1,386,914 people, due to the fact that it has few territory and it is a small country. Also the HIV epidemic affects many population decrease. The AID's have decreased more than 2/3 of the population it affects the results for higher infant mortality, higher death rates, and lower population growth rates. This has had a big impact in the countries population. The //**birth rate**// for Swaziland is of 26.16 births / 1000 population, the result for this is because in places like Africa people are so poor they cant afford protection, also the lack of education and because most people set their minds on having babies and make of them someone big who can help them prosper.

The **//death rate//** is an average of 14.21 deaths / 1000 population per year. The major factor in this country is the AID's epidemic going around and it affects from the youngest to the oldest also by the lack of food and resources people dont recieve the nutrition nescesary to live.

//**Net Migration Rate**// as you can observe no 0 immigrants / 1000 population would migrate to Swaziland since this country of turistic places and by its virus and lack the country rather than attracting them.of HIV/AID it drive people away fromis considered to poor, HIV/AID infection from their mother causing them to live less than 5 years.


 * //Infant Mortality Rate//** is a total of 59.57 deaths / 1000 live births the factors affecting this percentage would be the children from Swaziland suffer among malnutrition and the current food security crisis, also most of them inherite their

//**Population Growth Rate**// is a 1.195% due to this low population rate we have the factors of low economy and resources, as also read on the information above the HIV/AID are a big influence on this factor too. This also will affect the future populations project and socio-economic performances.

//**Life Expectancy**// is of 49.42 years, this low expectancy is due to the countries low economy and lack of resources for people and people dont have enough nutrients nor energy in their body to live any longer. This has a great impact on future generations, also in the death rate of the country.


 * //Doubling Time://** The doubling time is 58.57 due to how many time people will take to reproduce as much as they die and it appears to be quiet a short time due to the lack of education and protection in this country.
